Intervention/exposure
Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
patients will undergo primovist MRI as part of their work up for presentation with colorectal cancer liver metastases (CRCLM)

most patietns will undergo one MRI but may have a second if they need neoadjuvant chemotherapy and then restaging for possible surgery.

MRI usually takes about 30 minutes.

Diagnosis / Prognosis
Intervention code [2] 266668 0
Treatment: Drugs
Comparator / control treatment
patients will undergo Angio CT which is usual practice in the work up for CRCLM

as with MRI patients will undergo angio CT on more than one occassion if tehy need restaging after chemotherapy. this is our standard practice and not done differently in this study.

the angio CT takes about 4 hours. 15 minutes for catherter placement, 15 minutes for scanning, and 4 hours llying flat after catheter is removed from groin.

it is hoped angio CT and MRI will be done on the same day or within one day of each other.
Control group
Uncontrolled

Outcomes
Primary outcome [1] 266847 0
assessing accuracy of primovist MRI compared to angio CT.

both tests will be reported by 2 radiologists blinded to results of the other imaging modality.

tis will allow assessment of interobserver variability as well as accuracy of test. all 4 reports will be correlated with histopathology from surgery to assess accuracy of the tests.
Timepoint [1] 266847 0
measured postoperatively when histopathology available
Secondary outcome [1] 276495 0
identification of false positves in either angioCT or primovist MRI
Timepoint [1] 276495 0
when histopathology available
